Vinyl usually refers to Analog Long Playing Records (LPs). While vinyl is not as mainstream today as it was back in the day, the format is still in use. Vinyl records are considered to be more "warmer" and pleasant sounding than CDs.

Many audiophiles (and non-audiophiles) argue that Vinyl is superior to CD, and those people are correct in my opinion.

The improper way of saying more than one vinyl. To someone who collects records, it's one of the most annoying things.
